normal brain: playing pokemon B/W as a nuzlocke or efficient playthrough proves N right because you turned your pokemon into tools for your own personal gain

galaxy brain: playing pokemon X/Y without using mega evolution proves Lysandre right, because you are presented with a scarcity scenario with the mega ring and you use your strength to selfishly decide that nobody should have or use one

universe brain: Resetting pokemon D/P/Pt proves Cyrus right because you have full control over the game’s universe and can freely remake it in your image on a whim.

Nothing proves Archie and Maxie right because they are morons.

thinking about gi hun and sangwoo being childhood best friends. thinking about gi hun looking up to sangwoo because he was everything gi hun didn’t think he was - clever and successful and making his family proud. thinking about how this admiration never made gi hun bitter, and instead just made him proud. thinking about how blindly happy he was to see sangwoo again, how much he still believed in him, and thinking about how the dawning realisation that sangwoo wasn’t who he thought he was still didn’t make gi hin turn on him. thinking about how gi hun’s admiration just made sangwoo guilty and resentful. thinking about how deeply gi hun was stung by each of sangwoo‘s betrayals, because they were friends, because surely this wasn’t sangwoo? thinking about how gi hun personified the role sangwoo was forced to play and thinking about how sangwoo personified everything gi hun wished he was and in the end it was these roles that unravelled their friendship. thinking about how they are both there to save their families, both feeling like they’ve disappointed their families, both desperate for a second chance. thinking about how they’re foils of each other - sangwoo is the ideal of success that is so quickly revealed to be false and unattainable, and gi hun represents failure and disappointment and the unfairness of the working world. thinking about how gi hun always felt like a failure, always wanted to be like sangwoo, and how it’s revealed that in a world like this, the ideal of success is impossible to attain. thinking about how no matter how corrupt this world can make you, goodness still lies beneath, and that’s why sangwoo killed himself. to give gi hun a better life. to earn forgiveness for his own cruelty. thinking about how his lasts words were about his mom. and thinking about how even as sangwoo lay dying, their childhood dynamic still defined them, and thinking about how despite everything gi hun still sobbed over sangwoo’s corpse because he was still his friend, no matter what. they were supposed to leave together. finally, I’m thinking about how gi hun lived looking up to sangwoo, and sangwoo died looking up to gi hun

Sometimes a family is a steampunk country boy who doesn’t want to be there, a tall vampire mom who cares about her kids, a traumatized reclusive doll maker, her annoying emotional support doll, a cool fish man with mommy issues, and the physical embodiment of religious trauma

I think the biggest mistake people are making with this “the 4 lords rebel against mother Miranda and raise Rose instead” au is the fact that many of them are under the assumption that in order for that to work, the 4 lords would have to be good people, when I personally don’t think that’s true at all. Now that’s not to say that I mind the au’s where the 4 lords are actually decent people who were forced to work for Miranda but band together to rebel against her in order to save a small innocent child and then raise her as their own, I actually love those au’s a great deal and thing they’re very interesting and delve into a lot of really cool concepts that are worth exploring, but being a good parental figure does not require you to be a good person necessarily, and I think an au where the lords are just as evil and nasty and despicable as they are in canon, yet kind and tender and loving only to the little girl they took in, are just as, if not more fascinating than the other ones, because the capacity to be good and the capacity to love are two very different things and an au where the 4 lords love Rose unconditionally but continue to do terrible, horrible things would highlight that very nicely. Not only that but it would also lead to the absolutely incredible possibility of Ethan, if he hadn’t already been killed off by the 4 lords during his first time through, going back to the village and, among other things, having to fight and defeat Rose instead of Mother Miranda, who (at whatever age she is when this is happening) would be just as evil and terrible as the monsters who raised her, and that right there, is a final boss fight that I’d kill to see!!!
